Verse

Like an old familiar tune

That brings peace every time I hear it

Your melody is like that to me

Precious…

 

Like and old familiar friend

Who has walked with me along the journey

Your love for me is like that to me

Precious…

 

Chorus

Your great love for me

Is wide as it is deep

As far as I can see

But Greater

The greatest mystery

Your life laid down for me

As grand as grand can be

And precious

 

Verse

Like an old familiar chair

Where I sit and my rest comes easy

Your love for me is like that to me

Precious…

 

Like a winter’s warming fire

That drives away the lonely cold and darkness

Your love for me is like that to me

Precious…

 

Chorus

Your great love for me

Is wide as it is deep

As far as I can see

But Greater

The greatest mystery

Your life laid down for me

As grand as grand can be

And precious

 

Verse

Like a favorite sweater worn

That completely wraps its arms around me

Your love for me is like that to me

So precious…

 

Like a favorite memory

When recalled, leaves me feeling better

Your love for me is like that to me

So precious…
